The link between academic success and well-being.

Academic settings can pose particular challenges for supporting students in all the ways teachers want to. There’s a lot of content to cover, and in limited time. Adding well-being focuses to the mix doesn’t have to take time away from teaching the curriculum. Instead, it should enhance how the curriculum is taught—making teaching and learning more engaging for all.
